Remote Therapy Program Manager

Therapy programs don't run themselves. Someone has to design them, support therapists, monitor outcomes, and make sure the whole thing holds together as it scales. We're hiring a Remote Therapy Program Manager to be that someone β€” a leader who can build and oversee remote mental health programs without losing sight of the people they're meant to serve. This is a leadership role, not an entry point. We're looking for someone who has already managed programs, led teams, and made hard calls under real constraints.

Where You Fit In

You'll own the operational and strategic side of our remote therapy offerings. That means designing programs that actually fit different client needs, managing the therapists delivering care, and staying close enough to the data to know what's working and what isn't. You'll also work directly with leadership on where the organization is headed in the long term, since program decisions made today shape what's possible two or three years out.

Core Responsibilities

  • Design and manage remote therapy programs tailored to different client populations
  • Lead and support a team of therapists, maintaining consistent care quality
  • Monitor adherence to clinical best practices, internal policy, and ethical standards
  • Evaluate new therapy methods and technologies, and decide what's worth adopting
  • Partner with internal teams and outside organizations to strengthen program reach
  • Track program outcomes and adjust strategy based on what the data shows
  • Develop policies governing client safety, privacy, and ethical treatment
  • Work with leadership on long-term planning as the organization scales

Background We're Looking For

We need someone who's done this work before, not someone learning program management on the job. Clinical grounding matters here β€” you should understand therapy well enough to make sound judgment calls about how it's delivered remotely, not just manage the logistics.

Required

  • Master's degree, minimum, in Psychology, Counseling, Social Work, or a closely related field
  • At least 5 years of experience in therapy program management or a comparable leadership role
  • Demonstrated success leading remote teams and programs
  • History of supporting clients whose life circumstances and backgrounds differ widely
  • Strong written and verbal communication, especially across distributed teams
  • Comfort using digital tools and platforms for care delivery and program tracking

Helpful, Not Required

  • Doctoral degree in a mental health–related discipline
  • Experience building programs aimed at underserved or hard-to-reach populations
  • Background in policy development within a clinical or healthcare setting
  • Prior work with organizations scaling remote or telehealth services
Candidates researching leadership roles through Naukri Mitra often ask what separates a "manager" title from real decision-making authority β€” this role is the latter, with genuine influence over how our programs are built and run.

Compensation and What Comes With It

The role pays $135,021 USD annually. Beyond salary, here's what's included:
  • Fully remote work, with the flexibility to structure your own schedule
  • Ongoing access to courses, workshops, and professional development resources
  • A role with direct, measurable impact on client outcomes and program reach
  • Clear runway to expand your scope as the organization grows

How the Team Operates

We're a distributed group that takes mental health care seriously without taking ourselves too seriously. Collaboration is expected, not optional β€” you'll work closely with therapists, other program leads, and leadership on a regular basis. We value people who bring honest feedback, adapt when circumstances shift, and stay grounded when the work gets genuinely difficult, which in this field, it sometimes will.

Why This Work Holds Up Over Time

Access to therapy still isn't equal, and remote delivery is one of the more effective ways to close that gap. The programs you'd manage in this role directly affect whether someone gets consistent, quality care or falls through the cracks. That's the weight of the job, and also the reason it's worth doing well.

Next Steps

Send over your resume, plus a short paragraph on a program or team you've led and what you learned from it β€” specifics matter more than a generic summary. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and we move quickly with candidates who show clear leadership experience and clinical judgment. Open to applicants in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, European countries, Australia, India, and other eligible regions.
